Here is the scenario. I am moving from one hosting company to a new hosting company. I downloaded the comunity via ftp then back up to the new server via ftp. Made sure all the folder permissions were correct etc. Imported my database. Once dns changed my site was basicly a list for navigation. Found my way to "Clear system caches" and that brought the comunity back to a normal GUI. Thought all was well so put it online. Then got complaints that folks could not edit their posts after posting. Then found out that most of the gallery images were not displaying, the system logs state the image(s) are missing even though they are in the upload folder.
In admin I am unable to update the system from 4.6.8 to 4.6.9. The only error log I have is (I have 2 error entries both the same) "Sorry, you don't have permission for that!" " The CSRF protection key did not match. This may indicate a plugin or theme is out of date. Please contact technical support for more information.". Also in the system log there is an entry "auto_upgrade" "LogicException (0)". I have no plugins.
I still have access to the original install and am presently downloading the board vis ssh. And plan to re-upload to the new server via ssh.
So here is the question(s).
#1 - Some data was added to the new server database when I went live with problems. Not much though. Better to restore with my original database backup or use the new.
#2 - I have read somewhere that maybe the datastore folder could be a problem???
#3 - Most of my tables are MyISAM. A few are InnoDB. Was going to convert them all to InnoDB but have not done so. Can that be a problem?
I followed the document "Moving to a new server" which states "run through the support tools by visiting System>Support>Support, and selecting "something isnt working correctly". I have no "something isnt working correctly". Is that document out of date? 5 years old now.
Any suggestions or facts would be great as I would like to fix this myself before opening a support ticket.
